<h2 class="title"><a name="CONFORMING_TO">Conforming To</a></h2>
The
<b>cupsaccept</b>
and
<b>cupsreject</b>
commands correspond to the System V printing system commands "accept" and "reject", respectively.
Unlike the System V printing system, CUPS allows printer names to contain any printable character except SPACE, TAB, "/", or "#".
Also, printer and class names are <i>not</i> case-sensitive.
<p>Finally, the CUPS versions may ask the user for an access password depending on the printing system configuration.
